Great Chime.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Don’t have a lot of experience with Washers and Dryers. Bought the set to go in the home we recently purchased. Looking at some of the price differences amongst models and brands I feel like this was a good value. It fits a ton of stuff, and it has a great chime. Would definitely recommend. Like I said, it fits a ton of stuff and working in excavation everything always comes out very clean.

great washer
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great washer... I love the sleek look of the washer. The top is black glass so you can still see the inside of the washer. It is a little noisy but it's not a big deal. It does have the compartment for your fabric softner, detergent, clorox and even powder detergent. You also have the option to bill the tub with more water with push of a button with the cycle. The clothes wash great and so far so good.

One-Star Warning: A Stinking Mess of Regret
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Do not, under any circumstances, buy this LG washing machine. From day one, it has been a nightmare, and the customer service experience has only compounded the frustration. The most glaring issue is the persistent, horrible smell emanating from the machine's tub. It doesn't matter what detergents I use or how diligently I follow the cleaning instructions—the stench remains. I've owned several washing machines in my life and have never encountered such a problem, nor have I ever needed to perform so much "maintenance" on a machine just to keep it from stinking. Keep in mind, I purchased this LG washing machine in February 2025, so it's essentially a brand-new machine! In a desperate attempt to resolve the issue, I even spent over $200 on a plumber to inspect and replace the water lines, only to be told that the odor originates from the machine itself. So, I followed protocol and purchased washing machine detergents to clean the tub as per the warranty service request and the smell is still there. The warranty, both the manufacturer's and the extended Geek Squad warranty, have proven utterly worthless. Geek Squad refuses to assist because the issue falls under the manufacturer's warranty, which begs the question: what exactly is the point of paying extra for an extended warranty if it provides no additional coverage? LG's warranty service has been equally unhelpful, with representatives seemingly uninterested in resolving the problem or taking responsibility for their faulty product. It feels like nobody wants to help fix the issue or take responsibility of their product and service. Save yourself the headache, the wasted money, and the disgusting smell. Avoid this LG washing machine and definitely don't waste your money on an extended warranty that offers no real value. You're better off washing your clothes by hand.

Almost An Excellent Washer
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Terrific washer, with two exceptions. The black panel is a bit hard to read. Needs to be brighter. And the top of the washer is sloped, so if you put a basket of clothes on top, it will probably vibrate off. I bought a soft rubber pad to put on top to stop this.

Posted .Thank you for sharing your positive feedback about your LG WT8400CB top-load washing machine. It's great to hear that you are thoroughly satisfied with its performance, features, and quiet operation.
The WT8400CB is a 5.5 cu. ft. capacity washer that delivers effective cleaning without an agitator. Many customers praise its large load capacity, user-friendly features, and energy efficiency.
It's great that you were able to find a good deal on this model during a Memorial Day sale. Upgrading from an older machine to a newer, feature-rich model like the WT8400CB can make a significant difference in your laundry experience.

Excellent washer!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent washer! Our 12-year old washer was needing repair, so we replaced it with a Samsung washer, but that was a mistake! The Samsung washer was very noisy, so Best Buy allowed us to exchange for a new LG washer! What a great product. Very quiet and washes clothes efficiently!
